JAPAXESE IRIS 
Unfortunately, the names of Japanese Irises have become badly mixed. Manj 
growers have given different names to the same plants, and there is always 
much confusion when making a collection. Nevertheless, magnificent varieties 
may be obtained, with flowers running from pure white through lavender to 
purple. There are both single and double forms, the former occasionally throw¬ 
ing blooms eight or nine inches in diameter. 
These Irises are not troubled by many pests, but seem to tempt the Rose 
chafer for a short season, and are sometimes infested by the European cornborer 
in sections where that pest has become well established.
